### 3.1. Deprecated Objects

In order to better prepare implementors for future changes in the MIB, a new term "deprecated" may be used when describing an object. A deprecated object in the MIB is one which must be supported, but one which will most likely be removed from the next version of the MIB (e.g., MIB-III).

MIB-II marks one object as being deprecated:

          atTable

As a result of deprecating the atTable object, the entire Address Translation group is deprecated.

Note that no functionality is lost with the deprecation of these objects: new objects providing equivalent or superior functionality are defined in MIB-II.
